type letters were received by Penn State Head Football Coach
JOE PATERN O, a numer of members^ of his staff and then current
Penn State P" lA nother anonymous
threatening letter postmarked Pittsburgh, PA, 152, dated
11/4/80? was received by a television commentator for Penn
State/£ootball. This letter contained a threat to Coach
JOE PATER NO or one of his family members within the next
Tfireemonths . Aforementioned 11/4/80, letter was regarded
as Apparently being related to aforementioned threats being
received by the family, staff and squad of Coach JOE PATERNO
dating back to October, 1976.
During the aforementioned investigaton involving
Coach PATERNO, numerous individuals were considered as suspects;
however, a comparison of fingerprints with those developed
on the threatening letters were made with negative results.
In the threatening letters in the PATERNO case, the writer
made reference to the fact that his son had attended Penn
State University at a time approximately 1976 and had received
a "raw" deal, from Coach PATERNO. Ther writer made reference
to the fact that his son had quit Penn State after*years
and "went to the dogs" and that his wife (writer's) had
died, all of which was attributed to PATERNO and the mistreatment
of his son. All letters directed to recipients have been
postmarked "Pittsburgh, PA, 152."
During the investigative period, investigative
emphasis was directed toward former Penn State football
players who played for PATERNO in the past and had dropped
out of the program because of hard feelings. PG file 9A-2900
was closed on 11/18/81, after investigation provided no positive
results.

in the subject matter of the letters and the targets involved,
an "eyeball" review of the handwriting involved in the correspondence
in enclosed FD-302's (especially the envelopes) does show some

Result of examination:
i-
It was concluded that the questioned handwriting on Q8 , Q10
and Q12 was prepared by the person or persons who prepared the
questioned writing on previously submitted Q1 through Q4. Because
script handwriting is not comparable with hand printing , no conclusion
was reached whether the aforementioned person or persons prepared the
hand printing on Q5 through Q7, Q9 and Qll.
The hand printing on Q5 through Q7, Q9 and Qll was searched
through the appropriate sections of the Anonymous Letter File without
making an identification. Appropriate copies will bo added to -this file
for future reference.
Q5 through Q12 contain no watermarks , Indented writings , or
other identifying characteristics which would indicate their source. It wa3.
noted, howevor, that the stamps on Q5, Q7, Q9 and Qll were torn from a
sheet or sheets of stamps and that the Q6, Q3, Q10 and Q12 sheets of paper
were torn from a pad or tablet.
1
No conclusion was reached whether the questioned writing on.
Q5 through Q12 was prepared by either I
whose signatures appear on K1 , becauso the writings of those individuals
appearing on K1 are not sufficiently comparable with the questioned writing
Q5 through Q12 and the ALSO SUBMITTED items will be returned
to Philadelphia along with the result of the latent fingerprint examination .
Photographs aro retained.

back again like the anonymous caller did the previous year
following the Pitt-Penn State football game and the anony-^
mous caller agreed to do so, however, didi-not comply, possibly

in any way possible in an attempt to identify the anonymous
caller and particularly if the anonymous caller is connected
in any way with the person responsible for the threatening
calls to Coach JOE PATERNO , 1 H oe other members
of the Penn State Staff, SqUad members or members of the
families of the above.
|said he read the article in the Pittsburgh
"Post Gazette" about PATERNO' s threatening calls and realized
that his anonymous caller may be in some remote way connected
to the same situation, which is why, he in turn contacted
the Pittsburgh Office of the FBI.

caller or the person responsible for the threats to the
Penn IState football team personnel might possibly be.

From such a comparison as could be made, some differences
were noted in comparing the signatures on K1 with the questioned writing
on Q1 through Q4* However, if further comparisons are desired, writing
a t samples (either dictated or undictated) of any suspect, consisting of the
i / words appearing on Q1 through Q4 or words comparable in letters and
J? J letter combinations thereto, may be of value. A sufficient number of
yf samples should be obtained until it is believed that variations in the
wrtttRS habits of the person furnishing the samples can be accounted for.

Result o£ examination:
Because the limited hand printing on
previously submitted Q13 is not comparable with
portions o£ the questioned hand printing appearing
on Q39 and Q40, a definite conclusion was not reached
whether the writer of Q13 prepared Q39 and Q40.
Characteristics were noted, however, in the comparable
portions of the hand printing on Q13, Q39, and Q40 which
indicate those items probably were prepared by the same
person.

039 contains no watermark, indented writing,
or other identifying characteristic which would indicate
its source • It was noted, however , that the stamp on Q39
was torn from a booklet of stamps • Indented hand printing
was noted on Q40; however, the message As not entirely
clear. The indented words noted appear to be similar in
wording to the hand printed words appearing on 040. No
watermark was noted in Q40. The Q40 paper was cut from a
larger sheet of paper and appears to have been torn from
a pad or tablet.
Q39 and Q40, which have been photographed,
will be returned to your office with the result of the
latent fingerprint examination.

Result of examination:
Because the limited hand printing on
previously submitted Q13 is not comparable with .
portions of the questioned hand printing appearing
on Q39 and Q40, a definite conclusion was not reached
whether the writer of Q13 prepared Q39 and Q40.
Characteristics were noted, however, in the comparable
portions of the hand printing on Q13, Q39, and Q40 which
indicate those items probably were prepared by the same
13
FBI/ DOJ
- Q39 contains no watermark, indented writing,
or other identifying characteristic which would indicate
its source. It was noted, however, that the stamp on Q39'
was torn from a booklet of stamps. Indented hand printing
was noted on Q40; however, the message is not entirely
clear • The indented words noted appear to be similar in
wording to the hand printed words appearing on Q40. No
watermark was noted in Q40. The Q40 paper was cut from a
• larger sheet of paper and appears to have been torn from
a pad or tablet.

Q39 and Q40, which have been photographed,
will be returned to your office with the result of the

PURPOSE :
To reaue s t -Bureau- approval for Fingerprint Specialist
Identification Division, Latent Fingerprint
Section (LFPS), to travel to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, for the pur-
pose of comparing selected unidentified latent fingerprints in
captioned case with fingerprints maintained in Allegheny County,
Department of Public Protection, Bureau of Criminal Identification
(BCI).
DETAILS: Captioned case concerns threatening letters received bv
PSU Football Coach Joe Paterno,
{during 1976 and 1977 football seasons. Over 180
latent prints have been developed on evidence submitted and forty -one
latent prints identified as elimination fingerprints. No identifications
effected to fingerprints of named suspects. Postmark on extortion
letter and information contained therein indicates unknown subject
m-ay live in or near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania^Thiladelphia
Division (Philadelphia airtel to Bureau 7/19/78) believes more
letters will appear during oncoming football season and recommends
a manual search of Allegheny County Bureau of Criminal Identification
fingerprint files in effort to identify unknown subject. A search of
this nature is feasible inasmuch as a number of the remaining
unidentified latent prints that were developed on nine different
specimens are fingerprints of one individual. The fingerprints are
whorl-type patterns and based on their size and position on the
specimens appear to be impressions /pf ^he right and left thumb.
The minimum primary classification wojild bp 5/17. ^Allegheny

have been a significant tactor as it alerted that community
of the continued FBI interest in this matter.
As all logical investigation has been completed
this case is being placed in a closed status.

It was concluded that the questioned writings on
Q57 through Q60 were prepared by the person or persons who
prepared the questioned writings on various items received
previously in this matter. These questioned writings have not ’
been identified with the writing of a known person or persons.
Q57 through Q60 contain no watermarks, indented
writings, or other identifying characteristics which would
indicate their source. It was noted, however, that the
stamps on Q57 and Q59 were torn from a sheet or sheets of
stamps. In addition, a binder material was noted along
the upper edges of the sheets of paper used for Q58 and Q60
indicating those items were torn from a pad or tablet.

An authorship identification analysis was conducted
on Q57 through Q60, as well as on Q1 through Q56 for
comparison purposes. The examination (of the language
usage style, content, vocabulary, and syntax) indicated
the following: w
(A) gxxgxx Q1 through Q13, and Q37 (the 1976 group)
display many similarities and -would seem to be
authored by 'the same* individual.
(B) Q14 through Q16, and Q38 fit weakly into the 1976
group, displaying- a few 'similarities to the rest of
the group, Considering that the difference in the
style and content could be due to the subject matter
involved (Q15, Q16, and Q38 are the letters of
apology) , this grouping of documents may also have
been authored by the same individual who did the rest
of the 1976 group.
T
(C) Q17 through Q36 are dissimilar to the documents named
in (A) and (B) above*. It is concluded that one person
authored this group and that this author was not
involved irn writing the documents named in (A) and (B) .
(D) Q39 through Q56 (the 1977 group) display similarities
as a group and would seem to be authored by the same
individfjp.1. In comparing this group to the 1976 group,
however, minor differences were found along with some
similarities. Q40, Q52, and Q56 a little more closely
resemble the 1976 group, but life tie is not strong.
Perhaps the eleven-month time lapse between these groups
accounts for the differences in style. It is possible
that this 1977 group was authored by the same individual
involved in authoring the 1976 group.
(E) Q57 through Q60 (the 1978 group) display similarities
and were probably authored by the same individual.
This grouping of documents bears a strong resemblance
to those in the 1976 group (along with some differences).
Q58 bears similarities to Q4;' Q60 even more closely
resembles Q4. They are much less similar to the 1977
group. The ten -month time lapse between the 1977 and 1978
groups may account for the difference in style, indicating
the possibility that the same author was involved.
If the same person did not author the documents named in (A),
(B), (D), & (E) above, then the additional author (s) had access
to the original letter (s) so that the same vocabulary items,
content items, handwriting and handprint in^could be used.
There is insufficient evidence for determining the author's
age, sex, educational level, ethnic or geographic background.

Result of examination:
It was concluded that the questioned vreitings on
QG1 and Q62 wore prepared by the person or persons who prepared
tho questioned writings on various items received previously in
this matter. These questioned writings have not been identified
with the writing of a known person or persons.
No stamp was found on Q61. Tho Q62 sheet of paper
was cut from a larger sheet of what appears to bo a notebook
type paper. 06 1 and QG2 contain no watermarks , indented
writings, or other identifying characteristics which would
indicate their source.
Because tho I" 2 and K3 writings are limited and are not
sufficiently comparable in letters and letter combinations with
the questioned writings on Q61, Qf«2 , and prcvioulsy submitted
01 through Q60, a definite conclusion could not be reached
whether the writer of K2 or tho writer of K3 did or did not
prepare any of the questioned writings on 01 through 062.
It was not possible to determine definitely tho
printing appearing above and below the date "DEC 9 PM" on the
postmark appearing on tho QG1 envelope? however, the printing
above the date could possibly be "JIM? io AM" and the printing
below tho date could possibly be "NOV 3<3 5 PM . "
061, 062, I?2, and K3, which have boon photographed,
will be returned to Philadelphia with tho result of the latent
fingerprint examination, ho requested, photographs of K2 and
K3 are being furnished herewith to Philadelphia.

noted in portions of the questioned writing on Q5 through

did not prepare the aforementioned questioned items.

Result of examination:
Q63 and Q64 contain no watermarks, indented writings,
or other identifying characteristics which would indicate their
immediate source. It was noted, however, that the stamp on Q63
was torn from a sheet of stamps and that the Q64 sheet of
paper was cut from a larger sheet of what would appear to be a
notebook type paper.
It was concluded that the questioned writing on Q63
and Q64 was prepared by the person or persons who prepared
the questioned writings on various items received previously
in this matter. These questioned writings have not been iden-»
tilled with the writing of a known person or persons.

As requested, tho writing of BOB PHILLIPS , designated
X4, was compared with the questioned writing on Q63 and Q64, as
well as with the questioned writing on, previously submitted Q1
through QG2. A .definite conclusion was not reached, however,
whether PHILLIPS, Z4, did or did not prepare any of the
questioned writing on Q1 through Q84 because the K4 writing is
not sufficiently comparable with much of the questioned writing
on Q1 through Q64,
QG3 , Q64 and K4 have been photographed and will be
returned to the Pittsburgh office with the result of the
latent fingerprint examination.

It was determined that the hand printing
on Q65 and Q66 wao prepared by the same writer or
writers that prepared the hand printing on various
items previously submitted in this ease.
If additional known handwriting of suspects
in this' case is obtained, it should include numerous
repetitions of the exact wording of all of the
questioned handwriting and hand printing on Q1
through Q66. The questioned handwriting and. hand printing
should bo obtained on paper and envelopes similar in sise
and .format to the questioned items.

As requested , the writing of BOB PHILLIPS, 'designated
K4, was compared with the questioned writing on Q63 and QG4, as
well as with the questioned writing on previously submitted Q1
through Q62. A definite conclusion was not reached, however,
whether PHILLIPS, K4, did or did not prepare any of the
questioned writing on Q1 through Q84 because the K4 writing is
not sufficiently comparable with much of the questioned writing
on Q1 through Q34 .
QG3, Q84 and K4 have been photographed and will be
returned to the Pittsburgh office v/ith the result of the
latent fingerprint examination .

For possible investigative information, from
such a comparison os could 'be made, characteristics were
noted in portions of the questioned writing on Q5 through
Q7, Q9, Qll, Q13, Q17 through Q30, and Q39 through Q64
which indicate that BOB PHILLIPS, writer of K4, probably
did not prepare the aforementioned questioned items.

Post card and four memos bearing purported printing
of BOB PHILLIPS
Result of examination :
Q63 and Q64 contain no watermarks, indented writings,
or other identifying characteristics which would indicate their
immediate source. It was noted, however, that the stomp on Q63
was torn from a shoot of stamps and that the Q64 sheet of
paper was cut from a larger sheet of what would appear to be a
notebook type paper.
It was concluded that the questioned writing on Q63
and Q64 was prepared by the person or persons who prepared
the questioned writings on various items reoeived previously
in this matter. These questioned writings have not been idon-i
tified with the writing of a known person or persons.

Result of examination: ~
* it
It was concluded that the questioned writings on
Q61 and,Q62 were prepared by the person or persons who prepared
the questioned writings on various items received previously in
this matter. These questioned writings have not been identified
with the writing of a known person or persons.
No stamp was found on Q61. The Q62 sheet of paper
was cut from a larger sheet of what appears to be a notebook
type paper. Q61 and Q62 contain no watermarks , indented
writings , or other identifying characteristics which would
indicate their source.
I
Because the K2 and K3 writings are limited and are not
sufficiently comparable in letters and letter combinations with
the questioned writings on Q61, Q62, and previoulsy submitted
Q1 'through Q60, a definite conclusion could not be reached
whether the writer of K2 or the writer of K3 did or did not
prepare any of the questioned writings on Q1 through Q62.
, It was not possible to determine definitely the
printing appearing above and below the date "DEC 9 PM” on the
postmark appearing on the 061 envelope; however, the printing
above the date could possibly be "JAN 10 AM" and the printing
below the date could possibly be "NOV 3£ 5 PM."
Q61, Q62, K2, and K3 f which have been photographed,
will be returned to Philadelphia with the result of the latent
fingerprint examination. As requested, photographs of K2 and
K3 are being furnished herewith to Philadelphia.

(C) QI7 through Q30 are dissimilar to the documents named
in (A) and (B) above. It Is concluded that one person
authored this group and that this author was not Involved
in writing the documents named in (A) and (B).
(D) Q39 through Q56 (the 1977 group) display similarities
as a group and would seem to be authored by the same
individual. In comparing this group to the 1976 group,
however, minor differences wore found along with some
similarities. Q40, Q52, and Q5G a little more closely
resemble the 1976 group, but the tie is not strong.
Perhaps the eleven-month time lapso between those .groups
accounts for the differences in style. It is possible
that this 1977 group was authored by the eamo individual
involved in authoring the 1970 group.
*
<E) QS7 through Q60 (the 1978 group) display similarities
and were probably authored by the same Individual. This
grouping of documents boars a strong resemblance to those
in the 1970 group (along with some differences). Q58
bears similarities to Q4; Q0O oven more closely resemblos
Q4, They are much loss similar to the 1977 group. The
ten-month time lapse between the 1977 and 1978 groups
may account for the difference in stylo, indicating the
possibility that the same author was involved.
If the same person did not author the documents named in (A) ,
(B), (D), 8s (E) above, then the additional author(s) had
access to the original lettor(s) so that the same vocabulary
items, content items, bandwriting and hand printing styles
could bo used. There is insufficient evidence for determining
the author’s age, sex, educational level, ethnic or geographic
background .
No Laboratory report is attached.

Result of examination:
Because the limited hand printing on
previously submitted Q13 is not comparable with
portions of the questioned hand printing appearing
on Q39 and Q40, a definite conclusion was not reached
whether the writer of Q13 prepared Q39 and Q4Q.
Characteristics were noted, however, in the comparable
portions of the hand printing on Q13, Q39, and Q40 which
indicate those items probably were prepared by the same
person .

Q39 contains no watermark, indented writing,
or other identifying characteristic which would indicate
its source* It was noted, however, that the stamp on Q39
was torn from a booklet of stamps. Indented hand printing
was noted on Q4Q? however, the massage is not entirely
clear* The indented words noted appear to be similar in
wording to the hand printed words appearing on Q40. No
watermark was noted in Q40. The Q40 paper was cut from a
larger sheet of paper and appears to have been torn from
a pad or tablet*
Q39 and Q40, which have been photographed,
will be returned to your office with the result of the
latent fingerprint examination*

Result of anamination:
It was concluded that the questioned handwriting on Q8, Q10
and Q12 was prepared by ths person or persons who prepared the
questioned writing on previously submitted Q1 through Q4 . Because
script handwriting is not comparable with hand printing, no conclusion
was reached whether ths aforementioned person or porsons prepared the
hand printing on Q8 through Q7 , Q8 and Q1X.
The hand printing on QS through Q7, Q8 and QU was searched
through the appropriate sections of the Anonymous Letter File without
making an identification. Appropriate copies will be added to this file
for future reference .
QS through Q12 contain no watermarks , indented writings , or
other identifying characteristics which would indicate their source. It was
noted, however, that the stamps on QS, Q7, Q8 and Qll were torn from a
sheet or sheets of stamps and that the Q6 , Q8 , Q10 and Q12 shoots of paper
were torn from a pad or tablet.
No conclusion wae reached whether tho Questioned writing on
Q5 through Q12 was prepared by elthar l
whose signatures appear on 13, because the writings of those individuals
appearing on K1 are not sufficiently comparable with the questioned writing .
Q5 through Q12 and the ALSO SUBMITTED items will be returned
to Philadelphia along with the result of the latent fingerprint examination.
Photographs are retained.

From such & comparison a a could ba made, come differences
were noted in comparing the signatures on 10. with the questioned writing
on Q1 through Q4. However, if further comparisons are desired, writing
samples (either dictated or undlctated) of any suspect, consisting of the
words appearing on Q1 through Q4 or words comparable in letters and
letter combinations thereto, may be of value. A sufficient number of
samples should be obtained until it ia believed that variations in the
writing habits of the person furnishing the samples can be accounted for.
